Dev build/Linux: buffs don't blink when they're about to expire [RESOLVED]
That's most likely a known bug because it seems that the code to make buff icons blink for the last 2 rounds seems to be there, but it does not seem to work (and it's pretty useful for levitation and other spells).

This sounds like a regression. I'll take a look, cheers.

I've tested this with current code and buffs are still blinking as normal when <2 magic rounds are remaining.
It shouldn't be a platform-specific thing as the it's just a basic panel enable/disable toggle. Could you perhaps hit me with a save game to reproduce? I'll look a bit closer.

Oh...
With another character it doesn't happen.
That character has magic greaves and magic left pauldron with Intelligence and Fortitude when held.
I have them for a long time and their buff icons have disappered (that's probably a first issue).
And they may have messed up blinking, but I'm not sure how, because if I remove those items and wait for their effects to fade, levitation spell still would not blink before expiring...

Re: Dev build/Linux: buffs don't blink when they're about to expire
Item buffs icons are definitely buggy, they shouldn't disappear. I just haven't had time to fix that one yet. The main thing is that spell buffs blink and expire normally.
I'll leave this one here to remind me to fix item buffs dropping out. The effect from the item doesn't expire, just the HUD icons are buggy. Magic items are still under development right now while spells are the main focus.

I've fixed both this bug and the problem where spell icons by equipped items disappear prematurely.
